Pure Chitosan Microfluidic Spinning Affords Modular Core‐Sheath Fibers and Hand‐Crafted Scaffolds with Enhanced Fibroblast Compatibility

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Microfluidic Wet Spinning affords highly resilient and biocompatible microfibers of pure chitosan without the use of any crosslinker. We produced microfibers both sheath and core of made of chitosan and another version with a chitosan sheath and chitin nanocrystals in the core.

Fine Mapping and Candidate Gene Identification for Wax Biosynthesis Locus, BoWax1 in Brassica oleracea L. var. capitata

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Cuticular waxes play important roles in plant protection against various biotic and abiotic environmental stresses. The cuticular wax covering gives normal cabbage a glaucous appearance, but the appearance of waxless mutant is glossy green.

Analysis of n-alkanes in the cuticular wax of leaves of Ficus glomerata Roxb. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Leaf cuticle was covered by epicuticular wax consisting mainly of straight chain aliphatic hydrocarbons with a variety of substituted groups. The studies of cuticular characters of leaves had played an important role in chemotaxonomy. An n-hexane extract

Clinically‐Relevant Static Magnetic Field Induces Release of Encapsulated Molecules from Magnetoliposomes

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates the feasibility of a molecule release from magnetoliposomes triggered by a constant 1.5 T magnetic field currently used in clinical settings. ABSTRACT Magnetoliposomes (MLs) are known for their great potential in drug release under an alternating current (AC) magnetic field (MF).

Composition of the Cuticular Waxes ofPicea abies andP. sitchensis

open access: yesPhytochemical Analysis, 1996
The chemical compositions of the cuticular lipids of the needles of Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) and Sitka spruce (P. sitchensis) (Bong.) Carr.) were investigated by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry. Fractionation of the wax extracts was carried out using column chromatography.

Disc‐Toroid Hybrid Lipid Nanoparticles for Efficient Drug Encapsulation and Subcutaneous Delivery

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates sub‐50 nm solid‐lipid nanoparticles with long‐term stability, high drug loading, and strong tissue compatibility. Disc‐toroid morphology is confirmed and may play a role in cellular interactions, while low cytotoxicity and minimal systemic permeation confirm depot‐like behavior. These nanoparticles represent a versatile platform

Wax Lipids from Leaf Surfaces of Some Common plants of Malaysia [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Epicuticular wax lipids from leaves of some common plant species found in the Klang Valley, Malaysia were extracted into dichloromethane for analysis. Extracts were separated into hydrocarbon, carboxylic acid, ketone and alcohol fractions. The fractions

Leaf Optical Responses to Light and Soil Nutrient Availability in Temperature Deciduous Trees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Leaf optical parameters influence light availability at the cellular, leaf, and canopy scale of integration. While recent studies have focused on leaf optical responses to acute plant stress, the effects of changes in plant resources on leaf optics ...
